They told me today
that my heart is growing weak.
It still feels the same,
and I can still love,
but they tell me that now
it takes seventy-five beats
to do what my heart
could once accomplish in sixty.
They told me today
that it’s on its way out.
My car’s engine, that is.
It still purrs alright,
it just coughs every once in a while as well,
but they tell me that now
it goes two-hundred fifty miles
off of what could once
take her three-fifty.
I guess that’s just the way things go…

Things have a habbit of falling in and out of place beyond our control. And true, thats just the way things go sometimes. Good comparison going on too .. Ellis .. |
